Von Herzen - From the Heart

Heya everyone!

I hope you have remembered that Challenge up your life now is a monthly challenge and seeing as it is the 1st of June we have this Tic-Tac-Toe for you:

As you can see I went for the first row: blue-heart and stencil. I created an ombre-background with the awesome stencil by Create a smile using Oxide inks in Blueprint Sketch, Satly Ocean and Tumbled Glass. 

I added the bear which I have coloured with Copic markers and also the speech bubble with the embossed sentiment which means "from the heart". I am trying to learn to stop, when a card is done, so I thought I'd leave it like this. And I still really like it. Hope, you do, too ;o) I also hope you are going to play along with our Tic-Tac-Toe challenge at CUYL. You have almost a month to create something wonderful and share it with us. For now I wish you a wonderful and hopefully creative weekend! Happy crafting, yours Maike
